Ebrahim Khodabandeh, Nejat Society CEO in the MEK’s 15th trial court

Ebrahim Khodabandeh, Nejat Society CEO attended the MEK’s 15th trial court in Tehran.
The 15th session of the trial court of 104 Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) members and the group as a legal entity was held on July 9th, 2024. Ebrahim Khodabandeh who is a former responsible with the MEK’s international relations showed up as an informed source in the court.

Ebrahim Khodabande stated in the court: “I accomplished diplomatic missions for the organization in more than 20 countries. We used to hold meetings with Masoud Rajavi in Iraq and Paris. When the explosion of the building of the Islamic Republic Party took place, the organization did claim the responsibility for the bombing. Later, we realized that the reason was not international considerations, but the organization’s internal environment.”

He continued: The organization did not announce who did the attack, even the members of the organization were confused. A year later, in 1961, Massoud Rajavi held a meeting in Paris, where a number of members and supporters of the organization were present, and in that meeting, he clearly announced, ‘we collapsed the ceiling on Beheshti and the members of the Islamic Republic Party, and in this way, we ruined the regime’s future’. Rajavi used to say that Imam Khomeini is the present of the Islamic Republic, but Shahid Beheshti is the future of the Islamic Republic, and in thus he supposed that he had ruined the future of the regime.”

The former agent of MEK international relations stated: “The MEK published the slogan “Death to America” in its publications. The constitution of the MEK’s National Council of Resistance, was first based on fighting against imperialism and helping anti-imperialist movements. One year later, in 1982 the slogan of death to America was removed and the statutes of the National Council of Resistance were changed. Masoud Rajavi held meetings with other members of the group and announced, ‘The reason was that we were confronting America and the enemy We were, because our main conflict was with the Shah and America supported the Shah, and now that the Islamic Republic is one of the few independent countries in the world and has been in complete conflict with America, so we have no reason to be enemies with America and confront it. We are aligned.’”

Nejat Society CEO told the court: “In October 1997, the US State Department listed the MEK as foreign terrorist organization. At that time in Baghdad, Masoud Rajavi held a meeting in Camp Ashraf and said ‘when we did the bombing of June 27th, America did not list us as terrorist, but now that we have not taken up arms for 10 years, it has done so’.”

Ebrahim Khodabandeh further said: “Massoud Rajavi announced in one of the meetings, ‘After the victory of the Islamic Revolution, everyone sought to form a party, but we sought to collect weapons and our infiltrators were everywhere and we influenced wherever we could. Like the impact on Bani Sadr and wherever we could not, we removed people; Like the bombing of June 27th, the explosion of the Islamic Republic Party building.”

He stated: “Kolahi Samadi [the MEK agent who detonated the bomb in the office of Islamic Republic party] came to Iraq after the explosion of the Islamic Republic Party and Masoud Rajavi introduced him to everyone, but after a while there was no news of him and we did not find out where Kolahi went.”

The story of Bijar Rahimi

For Bijar Rahimi, 21 years of captivity in a destructive cult means losing the best time of his life. His youth was lost like many other youths who fell into the trap of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). He was recruited by fraudulent tactics of the MEK while he was seeking a good job, with the dream of a better life and prosperity. He spent 21 years of his life behind the mental and physical bars of the Cult of Rajavi.

Bijar Rahimi was recruited by the MEK shortly before the coalition forces’ invasion to Iraq. In a letter he wrote to the International Red Cross after leaving the MEK, he described his past as follows: “I left Iran 22 years ago with the promise and deception of the MEK to go to Europe to find a better job and improve life through Pakistan border but I was taken to Camp Ashraf in Diyala province, Iraq. I joined the organization one month before the invasion by the coalition forces in 2003. After the fall of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and the disarmament of the MEK by the United States, I was told that it was not possible to go to Europe. Then I and many other people who came with the same promise were faced with this trick that if we returned to Iran, we would be imprisoned, tortured and executed. Under the pressure of meetings and brainwashing techniques, despite our inner desire, we were forced to stay in the organization.”

Both Bijar and his brother Sarfaraz were caught in the trick of MEK recruiters. Sarfaraz managed to leave the group after the relocation of the group in Albania, but Bijar remained under the mental pressure of the destructive Cult of Rajavi. “The leaders of the Cult of Rajavi deceived me and forced me to stay in the organization by brainwashing and taking an oath, and they wasted 21 years of my life without any salary or savings, without the right to call and communicate with my family, without having a family, and with illness and mental and physical problems.”

Even since he was in Iraq, Bijar wanted to leave the MEK. In his testimonies, he states that in 2016, when he was living in Camp Liberty in Iraq, his asylum case was successfully submitted by Norway through the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. But the officials of the MEK dissuaded him from becoming a refugee to Norway and forced him to stay in the organization.

Leaving the MEK thanks to the power of the media

While Bijar was trapped in the MEK’s camp in Manz village in the north of Tirana, his brother, Sarfraz Rahimi, married an Albanian girl named Erisa Edrisi and had a family. Unlike many members of the MEK, whose families are trying to visit them from Iran, Sarfaraz lived a few kilometers away from Bijar in the city of Tirana. His efforts to meet Bijar had been faced with obstacles from the leaders of the MEK. He and his wife wanted their son Ermolindo to meet his uncle Bijar, and this double motivation led them to cooperate with Nejat Society in Iran and to establish Nejat Society Albania.

Since the early days of her marriage with Sarfaraz, Erisa Rahimi was in contact with members of the MEK who were friends of her husband. She, who is the head of Nejat society Albania today, said in his recent interview with News 24 of Albania about her motivation to cooperate with Nejat Society: “Because I was a Persian translator for Iranians, I got to know their pain and suffering inside the MEK so I made a promise to myself, to help them. As a translator, I was with them to go to the doctor and get a residence permit and rent a house, etc. I was very happy when Nejat Society Albania was formed with the help of the Nejat Society Iran because I could better support people in the society. The important task of our association is to help families inside Iran to free their children from the captivity of the MEK.”

The humanitarian and cultural activities of Nejat Society Albania to support MEK defectors, helping to integrate them into the Albanian society and enlightening about the nature of the Cult of Rajavi and its threats to the Albanian society, made Erisa and Sarfraz as activists of the society, to be noticed by the Albanian media. The result of several media appearances of the brother and his wife in the Albanian media was that Bijar became aware of his brother’s health and freedom, despite the lies that his commanders had told him.
In an interview with Bijar, Sarfaraz and Erisa by Euronews Albania, in March 2024, Bijar described the story of his escape from the MEK as follows: “I am fortunate that with the help of Euronews after the attack of the Albanian police on Ashraf 3, I saw Sarfraz and in this way, I got hope and was able to escape. I am very happy now that in addition to being here in Albania, I can contact my other family members in Iran whenever I want, as well as my friends in Europe and anywhere in the world.”

Bijar’s story motivates both media activists and Nejat Society

Aldo Sollulari, a journalist who became acquainted with the Nejat Society Albania and its activities through his career, is today the media manager of the Society and works there along with several other Albanian citizens. In a recent interview with the Albanian News 24, when his couleague asked about the most impressive story of MEK defectors in Albania, he mentioned the story of Bijar and Sarfraz Rahimi. After the Albanian police entered Camp Ashraf 3, Bijar saw the interview that Aldo Solulari had conducted with Sarfaraz and Erisa on News 24. The Interview made Bijar realize that the MEK’s propaganda about his brother was a lie and that his brother is outside the organization, not so far away waiting to see him.
Bijar got a visa (an exit permit by MEK commanders) to leave Camp Manz under the pretext of shopping, and soon after leaving, he submited himself to the Albanian police. He was reunited with his brother’s family with the legal protection of the Albanian police and today enjoys the individual freedoms of a free citizen.

Bijar’s story has some similarities with the stories of some other former members of the MEK. There are other people who, using the negligence of the commanders of the MEK and the opportunity to access the Internet and the media, got the spark in their minds to leave the cult. The most recent example was reported in the Le Monde newspaper’s interview with Mohammadreza Torabi, a former child soldier. In this interview, he admits that the first doubts about Massoud Rajavi’s ideology arose in his mind when he got access to the Internet in Tirana and came across an article on Nejat Society’s website, written by Alireza Mirasgari, about the deliberate murder of his father under the torture of MEK interrogators.

Humanitarian mission of Nejat Society

Thus, we see that the activities of Nejat Society, both in Iran and in Albania, can be effective in destroying the mental bars around the Cult of rajavi, in case of proper media coverage. Media reflection is not only useful in enlightening the public opinion, but it is a narrow but possible way to penetrate the minds of the members trapped behind the mental and physical bars of the cult.

Regardless of any political or religious bias, the mission of the Nejat Society is humanitarian and its goal is to facilitate the communication of families with their loved ones imprisoned in the personality cult of Masoud and Maryam Rajavi. For the activists of the Nejat Society, the release of each person from the destructive cult of Rajavi brings lots of pleasant feelings of success and happiness.

Le Monde’s four-page report on child soldiers of the MEK

Ghazal Golshiri, journalist of Le Monde, in a detailed report published on four full pages of the newspaper along with a number of photos recounts the fate of three former members of the People’s Mojahedin organization (PMOI/ MKO/ MEK) who had joined it since childhood and adolescence. The main title of the report is: “We, the child-soldiers of the Iranian Mujahedin-e Khalq”.

The three people mentioned in the Le Monde report were born in the 1980s and had parents who were close to the MEK. Along with photos of these three people, Le Monde mentions their real names as follows: Amir Vafa, Mohammad Reza Torabi and Amin Golmaryami.

Amir Vafa Yaghmai, who lives in Sweden today, got acquainted with the Kalashnikov weapon in Iraq in 1998, when he was 14 years old, he even learned how to drive a tank. He criticizes the MEK for separating children from their families and putting mental pressure on them to raise them as fighters.

Ghazal Golshiri writes that today the MEK presents itself as “a peaceful, democratic and non-nuclear alternative” to the Islamic Republic and “has significant influence in the West, including in the United States and France. About 2,000 members of this organization live in Albania today.”

Besides Amir Vafa, two other former child soldiers have agreed to describe their fate to Le Monde with their true identities. Others have spoken about their experiences but have preferred to remain anonymous.

Le Monde newspaper has asked the MEK’s opinion about the main points of the report, but has not received an answer. Instead, by sending an email, the organization considered the testimony of all these people as invalid without knowing their identity and described them as “known agents of the Mullah regime”.

After describing the background of the group and taking refuge in France and finally settling in Iraq, Le Monde writes that Amir Vafa was separated from his parents when he was three years old, after being transferred to Iraq like other children. His father, Ismail Vafa Yaghmai, was engaged in composing hymns as the organization’s official poet, and his mother, known as Akram, worked in the organization’s communications and logistics department. In those circumstances, Amir met his parents in very rare opportunities.

After the end of the Iran-Iraq war and the armed operations of the MEK against Iran, known as “Forugh Javidan”, an “ideological revolution” was developed by the group leaders, which was associated with the marriage of Masoud Rajavi and Maryam Qajar Azdanloo (Rajavi). From this time on, the pressure on families and children increased because according to them “family bonds harm the struggle.”

Then in 1991, when Iraq invaded Kuwait, hundreds of MEK children were sent to Europe, Canada and America without their parents. Amir Vafa also was trafficked to Sweden at the time, but finally returned to Iraq at the request of his mother. In a letter, his mother asked her son to continue the fight against “Khomeini’s mercenaries”. With this letter, she had sent two photos of Masoud and Maryam Rajavi as a gift to her son. The forty-ear old Amir says, “Masoud Rajavi was like the father of all of us, like God.”

In Iraq, strict military training and discipline shocked Amir. In addition, sessions of “self-criticism” and even confessions to sexual fantasies became mandatory. In 2001, during an operation near Iranian border, one of Amir’s friends and “comrades” named Shahram Jooyandeh lost his life in a conflict with the forces of the Islamic Republic. This incident strongly affected the spirit of Amir so that he was exempted from military activity shortly after.
Masoud Rajavi disappears

With the American invasion on Iraq in 2003, the status of the MEK changes. Rajavi tells the members to go to Iran. Amir along with his friend named Amin Golmaryami go to the border of Iran with a tank, but they are captured by the American forces. In this chaotic situation, Masoud Rajavi disappears. Some members say that he was killed in the American bombings, others believe that he lives secretly in a country like Iraq.

Finally, under the pressure of US military, the MEK accepts disarmament and remains in Camp Ashraf. Amir is also allowed to leave the organization after signing a letter in which he has to testify that he has always been treated well there. He finally went to Sweden in 2004 and ended his cooperation with the MEK forever.

But Amin Golmaryami has a different fate. After “Ashraf”, he goes to the “Liberty” camp and is finally transferred to Albania. The most ominous fate awaits the members who stayed in Camp Ashraf. 52 people are massacred in this place. The Iraqi government led by Nouri Maliki denies any kind of intervention in this crime. After escaping from Albania, Amin Golmaryami reaches Germany. Today he has German citizenship.

In 2019, one of Golmaryami’s friends named Mohammad Reza Torabi also arrived in Germany. He, who strongly believed in the MEK as a teenager, after his defection from the MEK was informed through one of the former members that his father died under torture in Camp Ashraf. After Iraq, Mohammad Reza arrived in Albania and found out the meaning of “real life” there.

Ghazal Golshiri writes at the end of the report that Mohammad Reza Torabi, Amin Golmaryami and Amir Vafa, despite insults and attacks and accusations by the MEK, are still trying to expose the “cult-like behavior” of the organization. Of course, the regime of the Islamic Republic also tries to take advantage of their statements. However, all three people still want their words and experiences to be heard. Even Mohammad Reza Torabi is thinking of filing a legal complaint against the MEK on charges of “murder and child trafficking”.

Amin Golmaryami says: “We were left in the hands of an organization that betrayed us and led us to war… Many of our friends have died. Some self-immolated. But the Mojahedin organization is still unable to accept its faults and apologize. Those who claim to fight for the freedom of Iranians must first start by freeing their members.”

Amir Yaghmai: Didn’t we have the right to choose?

A visual narrative from childhood to adulthood of Amir Yaghmai as a child of Mujahedin-e Khalq

Amir Yaghmai, a former child soldier of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), was one of the first children of this group who spoke out to expose its leaders. 5 years ago, when he went to meet his mother in front of the MEK’s camp in Albania, he was not allowed by the group leaders to meet her. Then, he started publicly criticizing the leaders of the MEK, and in return, he was accused and defamed by the MEK that claimed that Amir is the agent of the Iranian Intelligence.

Amir is one of the 1000 children of the MEK, whose Mujahed parents offered them to Masoud Rajavi when they were children. He is one of the 4 children who participated in the documentary “Children of Camp Ashraf” directed by Sara Moin, and after the release of this documentary, he was hated by the MEK more than before.
In response to the attacks of the MEK’s insults, he has increased his activity on social networks more than before. He, who is always accused of being a mercenary for the government of Iran by supporters of MEK, addressed them in one of his posts on the X social network and promised that he would share more stories from his past time inside the MEK in response to each accusation.

Thus, his account on X is full of photos and videos that show the painful history of helpless children of the MEK in its brainwashing system. Some of these children, such as Amir, have been involved in the issues of this terrorist cult since birth or at a very young age. Some of these children were able to distance themselves from the group, some have managed to leave it, and some are still trapped by it.

Amir is a child of Iranian parents, but he was born in France. He is the son of Ismail Vafa Yaghmai, a former member of the MEK. His father, who was once a member of the National Council of Resistance and a poet of the group, managed to leave the organization when Amir was young. His mother Akram Habib Khani, who is still trapped behind the bars of the Cult of Rajavi, has taken strong positions against Amir and his father in recent years under organizational pressure.

After enduring a long and difficult process, Amir Yaghmai managed to leave Camp Ashraf and join the temporary camp of the American army in the neighborhood of Camp Ashraf, and after 8 years of being a child soldier and living in the modern slavery structure of the MEK, he made his way to the free world. In 2005, he managed to return to Sweden.

This article is supposed to republish some of the photos and notes shared by Amir Yaghmai in his account on the X social network, in the order of the time of occurrence, from his childhood to today. Your attention is drawn to a few images from the story of a child who was a victim of the totalitarian and extremist cult of Masoud and Maryam Rajavi at least until he was 19 years old, translated by Nejat Society:

Amir Yaghmai’s post on X, May 5th, 2024

5 years ago, I and one of my friends went to Ashraf 3 in Albania, hoping to meet our mothers. At that time, I had not contacted my mother for about 16 years, and my only intention was to inform my mother that she would have a grandchild in a few months. MEK responded negatively to the meeting request.

This is a photo of me when I was 5 years old in the area of “Skan” or MEK’s housing complex in Badiezadegan camp near Baghdad. I was with my family one day a week and then I would go back to the overnight boarding house. We were used to missing our parents. Sometimes I think I dreamed everything…

Here at the base of the Zayerian in the suburb of Paris and me at the front, at the age of 4. We are singing the songs of the MEK. The brainwashing of MEK children started from this age. Pay attention to the letter board “A is like a revolution, G is like a gun, W is like war, K is like Khomeini…

About 1 year before we were sent back to Iraq, I met Maryam Rajavi during a trip to Paris. She gave me a gold necklace. The necklace that she gave to all the children of MEK. 1 year after that, I left for the hell in Iraq and the exit doors were completely closed on me.

The MEK claims that there were on child soldiers in the group. This is a picture of me at the age of 14 in a military uniform in Camp Ashraf. After 1 year of active brainwashing by the authorities, I was transferred from Paris to Iraq in 1998, and this captivity lasted for 6 years until the arrival of the American forces.

This is at Alavi’s border camp. I was transferred here from Faeze camp because I was a “non-organizational” person and did not follow the MEK’s rules. I had told myself that now that I was forced to be a prisoner here, I will be “childish” and I will not let them steal this time from me. I am the second person standing from the right in a white T-shirt.

Birthday celebrations were forbidden in MEK. Sometimes people who secretly have a friendly relationship with each other put a secret gift such as syrup powder or a handwritten greeting in each other’s closet. If it was revealed, you would be severely punished. But in the American camp, that “foreign imperialist” force, celebrated my birthday after 6 years.

In the end, it was the American forces who took me by helicopter to the Baghdad airport on October 2, 2005, to take me to the Swedish embassy in Jordan and finally return to Sweden. At the moment of the helicopter flight, the female colonel told the pilot to fly one round over Ashraf so that Amir would see this hell for the last time.

One of my first photos after returning to Sweden after 8 years in the hell of Iraq. I fell behind in everything, in education, social relations, even how to buy goods and train tickets. Someone told me, “Your fate is not strange, your parents were Mujahids and you ended up with Ashraf”. Does that mean we didn’t have the right to choose?

Amir Yaghmaei in Sweden

His post on X, May 6th, 2024
When I tried to meet my mother, the supporters of the MEK mockingly said, “A 40-year-old child is looking for his mother”, not knowing that in a free society, especially in Iranian culture, children have a relationship with their parents until the end of their lives. But my biggest regret is that my daughters have not seen their grandmother until today.

Amir Yaghmaei

Today, Amir Yaghmai is an environmental scientist and lives in Sweden. He is married and has two children. He believes that authenticity is with truth. Although in the middle of his content, he introduces himself as an atheist and against the government of Iran, he is well aware that the truth of the MEK must be acknowledged, and efforts must be made to end violation of human rights of the members of this violent cult.

Ceo of Nejat Society pens letter to the German Embassy in Tehran

His Excellency Ambassador Hans-Udo Muzel
Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany
Tehran Iran

Your Excellency
Greetings and Regards

On behalf of the Nejat Society in Iran, I would like to draw your attention to an important issue regarding the annual meeting of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK, MKO) in Berlin in June 2024.
Nejat Society represents the families of members of the MEK who are trapped in a remote and isolated camp in Albania. The MEK does not allow its members to communicate with the outside world, especially with family and friends.
According to people who managed to escape from this camp, the most basic human rights of the members are violated and the European Convention on Human Rights is systematically violated in the MEK camp in Albania.
You may know that on June 20, 2023, the Albanian police tried to search the MEK camp in Albania with a court order. Members of the MEK were ordered by the leaders to violently resist the legal actions of the police and were ordered not to allow the police to take away the computers and servers undamaged.
The result was that a large number of people were injured on both sides, and one member of the MEK who had a fake identity died of a heart attack (Abdul-Wahab Faraji-Nezhad, known as Commander Afshin, with fake identity documents under the name of Ali Mostashari). The MEK falsely claimed that the Albanian government did this with the cooperation of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
This is despite the fact that this organization has used the hospitality and facilities of Albania for 7 years and has systematically targeted the physical and psychological security of its trapped members and their waiting families from Albania. Similar cases have happened in the past in Iraq, US, UK, France and Germany. They have always created problems for the host countries.
You should also know that this terrorist cult is not allowed to hold its annual meeting in France, which it used to perform every year, and Albania, where it has a large presence, and other countries also prevent the entry of Maryam Rajavi, the leader of this cult after Massoud Rajavi.
Giving the leaders of this destructive cult the opportunity to hold a deceitful conference does not send a message of friendship to the families of the captive members. In fact, the message received is that the German government supports the criminal leaders of a terrorist group. This group has imposed forced celibacy, female vasectomy, forced labor, and other violations of the most basic human rights on its members.
It is surprising for the painful and suffering families that the German government allows a terrorist cult that does not show mercy even to its own members to hold a conference and rally. The MEK is a group that, due to the violation of human rights of its members and terrorist and cultic activities, is rejected even among other opposition groups of the Islamic Republic.
We call on the German government to reconsider its decision and instead question the leaders of this organization as to why the most basic human rights of its members are violated in a remote and isolated camp with no external control over it.
With respect

CEO of Nejat Society pens letter to the ICRC

International Committee of the Red Cross

Greetings and Regards,

On behalf of the Nejat Society in Iran, I wish to congratulate the World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day on Wednesday, May8, 2024.
Nejat Society represents the families of members of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK, MKO) who are trapped in a remote and isolated camp in Albania. These families have not heard from their loved ones for many years, which is because the leaders of the cult do not allow their members to communicate with the outside world, particularly family and friends.
According to those who managed to escape from this camp, the most basic human rights of the members are violated and the European Convention on Human Rights, which Albania is also a signatory, is systematically violated.

In the mandate & mission of the Red Cross we read:
It (ICRC) takes action in response to emergencies and promotes respect for international humanitarian law and its implementation in national law.
The ICRC also endeavours to prevent suffering by promoting and strengthening humanitarian law and universal humanitarian principles.
. . . the ICRC, with the support of the entire Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, has constantly urged governments to adapt international humanitarian law to changing circumstances, . . .
According to this mandate, when the basic human rights of the members of the MEK are continuously violated inside the camp of this organization in Albania and the members are exposed to systematic brainwashing, the World Red Cross ought to urge the Albanian government to implement international and European humanitarian laws in MEK camp in Albania.
Last year, I submitted the families’ requests to connect with their loved ones, along with many documents to the ICRC office in Tehran, and they promised to handle the case and cooperate, but so far no answer has been received.

On behalf of the grieving and awaiting families, I request you to fulfill the main task of the International Committee of the Red Cross and provide the possibility of communication between the families and the missing members inside the MEK camp in Albania through the Albanian government.

The families have absolutely no information about the situation in the camp and the conditions of their loved ones. They do not know if their loved ones are still alive and live inside the camp. No one knows whether they have deceased or have been transferred to another country. There is no information about the physical and mental health of these people. Are they imprisoned and curfewed? These people are considered missing and disapeared from the point of view of their families. According to the information received from the former members, the relations inside the camp have the status of modern slavery, due to the mind control that is applied.

I also request you to remind the responsibility of the government of Albania to comply with the human rights convention of the Council of Europe and ask this government to firstly remove the ban on giving visas to Iranian families of members of the MEK to travel to Albania and secondly open the doors of the camp in Albania to families and the free world so that families can visit their loved ones along with representatives of the Red Cross and be sure of their physical and mental health.

I look forward to your reply

Respectfully,
Ebrahim Khodabandeh
CEO of Najat Society

Young girls witnessed their mother’s murder by the MEK terrorists

The Eskandari family is one of the plaintiffs of the trial of the leaders of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). Eshrat Eskandari, the mother, was killed by 8 bullets fired by the terror team of the MEK.

Eshrat Eskandari was 26 years old at the time of her heartbreaking death in September 1982. Before the revolution, she was married to Mohsen Eskandari, and eventually they had four children. Eshrat was targeted by the MEK because she was the wife of Mohsen who was soldier of Iranian revolutionary guard.

Her children Masoumeh, Mansoureh, Mohammad Javad and Mehdi have so far testified about that Friday morning when their mother was killed before their horrified eyes. These children have carried the trauma of their mother’s death and her loss throughout their lives. the trace of deep pain and suffering can be seen in their faces in the interviews they have attended since them.

Masoumeh Eskandari

Masoumeh Eskandari, who was 8 years old at that time, considers that day the worst day of her life, because she not only witnessed her mother’s murder, but she was also shot by the terrorists.

Mansoureh Eskandari was a 6-year-old child at that time. She witnessed her mother’s being shot, thrown in her blood. She tearfully states that even though she was a young child that day, she will never forgive herself for opening the door to Rajavi’s terrorists.

Mohammad Javad remembers the moment that the terrorists entered the room where he and Mehdi were sleeping. They opened their eyes to two men with Kalashnikovs opening fire in the room. He took his younger brother and laid down so that they would be safe from the bullets.

During the attack of two MEK operatives on Mohsen Eskandari’s house, not only his wife but also a 18-year-old man and 17-year-old woman, who were Eskandari’s guests, were assassinated. They were having breakfast when the terrorists attacked their house on Nahidi St. Tehran

In the morning of August 27th, 2024, there civilians were killed. 4 children were traumatized for their entire life by the violent of the MEK.

The CEO’s gratitude to the women of the Albanian Nejat Society

Ebrahim Khodabandeh, CEO of Nejat Society, thanked the Albanian women in a message following the successful and fruitful activities of the women’s group of the Albanian Nejat Society.
The text of the message is as follows:

Greetings and regards
Hereby, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Women’s group of the Nejat Society of Albania and you, the active and caring head, for the successful and fruitful celebration of the International Women’s Day on Friday March 8, 2024 in Nejat Villa in Tirana.

The commemoration programs of this day started with social activities early in the morning in the center of Tirana city and continued with photo and poster exhibition in the Villa’s open area and finally ended with the conference of women supporters of the Nejat Society of Albania with prominent speeches in the Villa’s hall.

This was the second major act of the Albanian Nejat Society after the large gathering of November 26, 2023, since the announcement of its founding in less than six months.
Also, I congratulate you and your friends and all the eager families on the foundation of the students’ defense committee of the Albanian Nejat Society, which was announced in this conference, and I hope that these activities will be a source of good and blessings for the families.

The received reports indicate that you organized this program with the lowest cost and facilities and with round-the-clock efforts in a very limited time and with a very busy schedule, and you had good media coverage, including a report broadcast on several television channels.

While thanking all of you, it should be mentioned that now families have much higher expectations in the coming Persian New Year (Nowruz). The activities of you and your friends should finally convince the Albanian government to terminate the practice of modern slavery by MEK in Europe on the threshold of the second quarter of the 21st century.

Sincerely,
Ebrahim Khodabandeh

Nejat Society Albania’s social action on the occasion of the Intl Women’s Day

On the occasion of March 8, the International Women’s Day, the female members of Nejat Society Albania carried out a social activity in downtown Tirana giving flowers to women and mothers congratulating them on the occasion of Women’s Day.

Members of women’s committee of Nejat Society Albania, under the responsibility of Erisa Rahimi, Lirieh Abbasi, and Altisa Bilo, went to crowded areas of Tirana city and offered flowers to the Albanian women on this day. They congratulated and gave explanations about the conditions of Iranian mothers and women whose loved ones are trapped in the closed and remote camp of the Mujahedin-e Khalq, in Albania.
This action was widely welcomed by Albanian women. Whenever the women members of the Albanian Rescue Association talked about the lack of family visits with their children in Camp Ashraf 3, Albanian mothers and women were very impressed and declared that the Albanian government should take urgent action against this issue.

Albanian mothers and women prayed for Iranian women and mothers to meet their loved ones on this day and said that the MEK must be stopped so that it does not violate the human rights of its members.
During this social activity, a number of current members of the MEK were seen on the street taking pictures and videos of the activities of Nejat Society members. When the members of the society went to them to have a friendly conversation with them, they immediately ran away.
